plans.

- Ask Jeeves Ask Jeeves where
you can find lesson plans and you will receive great amounts
of information.
- American
Literature Resource This web site is a resource of American
Literature. It is a research and reference guide which
I think will be useful for teachers. For example, if you need
some quick information regarding a specific author or piece,
you could reference this sites information quickly.
- Working
with Learning Disabilities Here is a link for a web page
that contains teaching strategies for learning disabled students.
I thought it was a good page because it gave some good general
information about what teachers can do in their classrooms, and
it gave some good teaching strategies for working with these
students. All of us will have learning disabled students in our
classroom at one time or another.
